A 77 ORA/E Y5 I UNITED 'STATES' PATENT or-m THEODORE FBUGHTIAN, OF NEWYORK, N Y.

T 0 all whom it may concern:

Be it known that LTmzonone Fnucnrrmn, a citizen of the United States,residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York,have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Neckties andMethods of Making the Same, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to a new and improved construction of necktie orcravat.

One of the objects of my invention is to produce a cravat or the likewhich shall slide through a turned-down collar of the wellknown type,with a minimum of friction.

Another object of my invention is to produce a cravat which can bequickly and cheaply made.

Another object of my invention is to produce a cravat in which thefilling material is sewn throughout its entire length to the face fabricof the article so that it will not shift when in use and bunch up so asto lessen the life of the article.

Other objects of my invention will be dis 'closed in the followingdescription and drawings which illustrate a preferred embodimentthereof.

Figure 1 is a rear view of my improved article.

Fig. 2 is a rear view of the facing or face fabric and the material.

Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing how the face fabric and-fillingillustrated in 2 are doubled over and sewed.

Fig. 4 is a section along the line 4-4 of 1 Fig. 4' is a detail sectionof the central part of Fig. 4.

Fig. 5 is a section along the line 55 of 2.. F ig.6isasectionalongtheline66of piece of face fabric 1 is first cut out into suitableform, one of the shapes which the blank of face fabric may asume beingshown in 2.

A piece 0 filling material 2 is then sewed ontotherearoffacinglbymeansof'aline of stitching 3.

The filling material 2 is preferably made of a light thin material whichis somewhat stiffer than theordinary soft filling materials heretoforeused.

The facing '1 and the filling 2 are now Specification of Letters Patent.

tubular structure inside of the facing 1,-

being connected to one half of the-cravat b the stltchmg 3 and beingconnected to both 1 is now on the outside of the I,

halves of the cravat bv means of the stitching 4.

The stitching 3 and 4 can be done by means of the ordinarysewingmachine.

As a result of the method of manufacture above mentioned, the filling issewed to the facing along its entire length and along the edges thereof,while substantially all the rest of the filling is unsecured to thefacing but is in substantially fixed relation thereto.

I have shown a preferred embodiment of my invention but it is clear thatnumerous changes may be made in the method, and the construction of thearticle itself produced by this new and improved method, withoutdeparting from the spirit of my invention.

It is preferable to have the filling material 2 of substantially thesame contour as the adjacent part of the facing 1.

' I claim 2-- 1. A method of making a necktie or the like which consistsin sewing the longitudinal edge of a iece of filling material to alongitudinal e ge of the rear surface of a fac then doubling over thesaid facing material so that the facing is folded inside out, thenstitching together the edges of the doubled-over facing and an then thearticle thus made insi e out, a suflicient portion of the said fillingbeing left unsecured to the said facing, so thatthe said fillingmaterial forms a loose, tulbmuiar structure within the said facing mate2. A method of making a necktie or the like which consists of sewingtogether the four adjacent edges of a doubled-over piece of facing and adoubled-over piece of filling material, the said facing beingdoubled-over so as to be inside out, and then turning the structure thusmade inside out.

3. A necktie or the like comprising a piece material sewed together aong the median e of ttjllilen rear thel'flif, the said fa ha wiitapieceo filhng' mater i ail whb s e edges are connected to each otherand to the facing by the same stitches edges of the facing and thefilling being conwhich connect the edges of the facing, subnected toeach other, substantially the entire stantially the entire remainingpart of the remaining part of the said filling material said fillingmaterial being unsecured to the being unsecured to the said facingmaterial,

4. A necktie or the like comprisinga dou- I testimony whereofI-'hereunto aflix my bled-over facing and a doubled-over piece ofsignature. 10 filling material therein, the four adjacent THEODOREFRUCHTMAN.
